I'm running XDM and have it started
via /etc/rc.local
xdm -f /etc/xdm.conf
!/bin/sh
if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm ] ; then
# need to cleanup first.
if [ -f /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm-pid ] ; then
rm -f /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-pid
fi
# now, we can start it.
echo -n "xdm"; /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm
fi
Everything works better than being locked out on my
keyboard by starting it via /usr/local/etc/rc.d/xdm.sh
Any way I can't figure out why when I log in as root
It doesn't see the patch /usr/local/bin.
Logged in as a user all is ok ...logged in as root I can't
call up pine and it appears anything else under
/usr/local/bin
I have the same files for root and user for:
.cshrc
.login
.profile
.xsession
Anything else I can be missing.
Can't figure out why I can't callup pine
as root but can as a regular user :-(
